Turner 5 spot replacement bushes

[wrinkleygit]

Every time I see one of these early frames for sale I get the urge to buy one, it’s a bike I’ve always fancied but never got an opportunity to get hold of.
How easy is it to get hold of replacement bushes these days, as I believe that was the main weakness should I have a moment of madness

Ps if anyone down here in the Westcountry has one for sale feel free to tempt me (size medium)

Bushes are usually easy enough to source from a bearing supplier. I don't know about this specific bike but if I can get a spherical bearing for a Whyte JW4 from BRT bearings in town, then surely anything is possible??????

Re:

They're made by a company called Igus, they will probably be the imperial versions, but cheapish and very easy to source, https://www.igus.co.uk/iglidur/plain-bearing
